Floating point data set compression
Abstract:
Computer-implemented methods, systems, and devices to perform lossless compression of floating point format time-series data are disclosed. A first data value may be obtained in floating point format representative of an initial time-series parameter. For example, an output checkpoint of a computer simulation of a real-world event such as weather prediction or nuclear reaction simulation. A first predicted value may be determined representing the parameter at a first checkpoint time. A second data value may be obtained from the simulation. A prediction error may be calculated. Another predicted value may be generated for a next point in time and may be adjusted by the previously determined prediction error (e.g., to increase accuracy of the subsequent prediction). When a third data value is obtained, the adjusted prediction value may be used to generate a difference (e.g., XOR) for storing in a compressed data store to represent the third data value.
